fork, then taken out by means of the crane The ball is then worked in a squeezer. The flue is replaced after the requisite quantities of cinder and metal have been again charged, and the process is continued. From eight to ten charges are made before any refettling is required, and these heats are worked in a day of ten hours. See puddling-furnace. Mechanical Puddlers.

right hand, as the term dextrine indicates. Cane-sugar (sucrose), on the other hand, is crystallizable, and turns the plane of polarization to the left. See Miller's Elements of Chemistry, Part III. pages 71, et seq. Glucose is developed in the process of malting, and its infusion is the solution called wort, from which beer is made; or it makes the wash of the distiller. Among the processes for the expedition or more perfect performance of the change of condition may be cited: — Riley, March 5, 1850, converts corn meal into glucose under pressure in a boiling solution of sulphuric acid: water, 1,000 gallons; acid, 25 pounds. Reitsch, February 3, 1852. The saccharine matter of wort evaporated to a viscid mass. Hoffman, May 25, 1858. Meal treated with dilute sulphuric acid and steam under pressure of 350° Fah. Decant and evaporate. Hawkes, February 3, 1863. Wort of malt boiled with decoction of hops; cane-sugar added; boiled to a thick sirup; add gelatine, and c
